Here are a couple of shelves holding boxes of photographs from the Hong family papers. You Chung (“Y.C.”) Hong (1898–1977) was an immigration lawyer, civic leader, and major figure in the Los Angeles Chinese community during the period of the Chinese Exclusion Act, a federal law in effect from 1882 to 1943 that prohibited the immigration of Chinese laborers to the United States.
